IWM - A CUSTOMISED EXERCISE PROGRAMME
IWM calculates the calories needed to be burned by the user to maintain weight. This calculation is based
on food intake and weight in contrast with standard body mass index (BMI). It’s just like having a personal
training consultant.
The IWM console obtains user weight through wireless transmission from the provided IWM scale. It then
displays current user weight and offers information on the ideal weight.
The IWM system will generate a personal exercise programme automatically. This customised programme
is based on the difference between actual weight and the weight of standard BMI for the user size, gender
and age.
IWM is not only for people who are overweight but is also perfect for people who understand weight loss,
diet and exercise.
If the actual measured user weight is lower than the standard BMI, the smart IWM programme would also
suggest an exercise programme to reinforce muscle building - and to help reach standard BMI.
The IWM can be implemented on various categories of CV equipment ranging from treadmills to stationary
bikes and cross trainers.
THE BODY MASS INDEX INTRODUCTION
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a heuristic proxy for human body fat based on an individual’s weight and
height. BMI doesn’t actually quantify the percentage of body fat. The BMI is defined by the individual’s body
weight divided by the square of his/her height. The formula is universally used in medicine.
Following is the formula of BMI calculation, kg/m2.
BMI = Mass (kg)
((Height (m))2
BMI = Mass (lb) x 703
((Height (in))2
BMI = Mass (lb) x 4.88
((Height (ft))2
BMI = Mass (st) x 9840
((Height (in))2

STEP 1
Power on Equipment. Press the “IWM” button
on console. The IWM light will start blinking.
This indicates that the IWM console is ready and
the user can be weighed. Stand on the scale
in a still manner until the body weight figures is
displayed (3 blinks). The body weight figure will be
automatically transmitted to the console display.
The IWM light stops blinking and will “beep” once
after confirmed data transfer. You will see the
user weight figure on the console screen.
STEP 2
Press UP/DOWN buttons to select user ID
(between U1 to U9) and press ENTER
to confirm.
STEP 3
Input the users gender. Press UP/DOWN to
select male or female and press Enter to confirm.
STEP 4
Input the user age, the default is 30. Press UP/
DOWN to change and ENTER to confirm.
STEP 5
Input the users height. Press UP/DOWN
buttons to adjust and press ENTER to confirm.
STEP 6
The console will display the recommend user
weight on “RECOM”. Here, you can compare
the current body weight and recommend
body weight. The console also automatically
generates the personalised workout programme
including target calories to burn. All you need to
do now is press START and enjoy your workout.
After pressing start, the exercise programme
and the target calories will countdown to zero.
STEP 7
You can adjust the speed and incline
(or resistance in Exercise Bike and Cross Trainer)
by pressing the related buttons during exercise.
The workout time can be changed using the
speed and incline buttons (or resistance in
Exercise Bike and Cross Trainer).
For example, if you increase speed manually
(or resistance), the workout time will become
shorter. This is due to the target calories being
preset by IWM. Once you increase your speed
(or resistance) the workout time becomes shorter
to maintain the same level of calories burned.
INTELLIGENT WEIGHT MANAGEMENT PROGRAMME OPERATION PROCEDURES WHAT IS BODY MASS INDEX - BMI?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is used to assess how much an individual’s body weight differs from what is normal
or desirable for his or her height. This weight excess or deficiency may, in part be accounted for by body fat.
Although other factors such as muscularity also affect BMI significantly. The World Health Organization (WHO)
regards a BMI of less than 18.5 as underweight and may indicate malnutrition, an eating disorder, or other health
problems. While a BMI greater than 25 is considered overweight and one above 30 is considered obese.
The ranges of BMI values are only as statistical guide when applied to adults. They are not a prediction of health.
